Doing crazy things is a sign of freedom that has nothing to do with madness, it simply gives wings to a possibility: that of taking a different path than is considered normal. In spontaneous and lively situations, there is a degree of life that would not be possible without them. Everyone, absolutely everyone, has already committed madness at some point in our lives, because turning off and getting this adrenaline rush is necessary and inherent in our nature.
Today, the definition of madness is linked to a mental imbalance manifested in a distorted perception of reality, loss of self-control, hallucinations and absurd or unrrasonable behaviors; on the other hand, doing crazy things is a familiar phrase with a subtly different meaning. People need a little madness, otherwise we would never dare cut the rope and free ourselves or choose another option that doesn’t make sense.
Men are so necessarily crazy that it would be crazy, otherwise not to be crazy.
Not all geniuses are crazy and not all fools are geniuses, genius is a person with an extraordinary subject-oriented ability and the ability to create new ideas and express them, he is not a patient, although it is true that in case of illness, he knows how to take advantage of his flashes of madness to create fantastic things. This thesis is based on research that has shown that creative faculties already existed before the onset of the disease.
So, some people confuse and call others crazy because they have special and authentic abilities. Sometimes we neglect things we don’t mean by fear, ignorance, and ignorance (or a combination of everything). The distance between genius and madness is wider than our ignorance allows us to see.
Apparently, there is a genetic basis for engineering, although little research has been done on this subject. Similarly, the environment is also critical. For example, in the jungle, isolated, Mozart and Einstein would not have been geniuses and we probably wouldn’t have the image we have today. Remember that research indicates that 75% of brain architecture depends on the environment.
Creativity is also associated with emotional conflict, apparently it is dissatisfaction that drives the genius to create, and has a neurological basis, Genius is not a mentally ill, but if he is, he knows how to use his flashes to create.
Geniuses are like towers: their height is understood by distance, but being with them it is impossible to measure their height and admire their greatness.
Madness is, in fact, the deprivation of the use of reason or good judgment, the problem is that until the end of the nineteenth century madness was linked to the rejection of established social norms, so even today, people who do not respect social norms is considered crazy and their behavior as crazy.
Societies generally create a series of model behaviors that cover the different stages of human development, setting aside cultural differences, most societies expect people to be born healthy, grow without health complications, study a university profession or specialize in a productive field, marry and form a new family group, in a new home.
Such paradigms are nothing more than the famous norm, which is accepted as normal, and any attitude or idea that exceeds its limits is considered incorrect or, as the case may be, as a real madness; however, sometimes doing crazy things is the only healthy reaction. for a sick society.
“Mediocrity for some is normal, madness is being able to live beyond it. -Charly García-
